How To Play Telestrations | PDF Game Rules (2024)

Telestrations is a visual version of the verbal game "telephone" where one person starts off with one word or phrase and passes it on to the next person and so it goes down a line of people. What the last person will say will usually surprise you as it is so far from where it started. Telestrations does all this by drawing and object or phrase. The next person has to interpret that drawing and write down what they think it is. The next person draws what the previous person guessed and so on.

Telestrations is a fun and hilarious laid back "game" where things get crazy fast and drawings start straying from the original concept. When everyone is done you can review everyone's drawings and see where things got off track and laugh at the funny interpretations.

Each player starts with a drawing board, a marker, and a card with a secret word or phrase. Players take turns drawing the word or phrase on their board, trying to convey its meaning to the next player. After the drawing is completed, the player passes their board to the next player, who must guess what the word or phrase is. After guessing, the next player writes their best guess on the back of the board and passes it to the next player who must draw their interpretation of the word or phrase.

This process continues until the board makes its way around the group, and players can compare the initial word or phrase to the final drawing. Points are awarded to players who correctly guess the original word or phrase and players with the most points win the game.
